[mythtv-users] Does 0.20 take a beefier machine?

[White Joe]

I am using QT, not open GL...unless it is set somewhere besides the
Appearance screens.

		I have been running Myth since late 0.17 on an A7N8X-E
with a 2.8 AMD with 512MB of RAM.  First with one PVR-250, then when it
came out, a PVR-500 as well.  Aside from some occasional pixelation
during major CGI or all three tuners starting at once, its been good.
In the last week, since I have upgraded to 0.20 and after a complete
wipe of the machine, I have noticed a lot of lag in menu navigation.
Twenty seconds to open Watch Recordings, or ten seconds to reach the
exit question from the main menu.  These were both zero to two second
operations last week.

		So the question is, is this expected behavor for a FE/BE
system of this power running Myth 0.20?  Do I have a good excuse to buy
more hardware?

	Are you using OpenGL to render your menus? If so, are you using
an OpenGL-enabled graphics card with OpenGL enabled?

	Try switching to QT to render the menus and see if it fixed the
problem. If so, figure out why you're not getting OpenGL on your card
(if it should).
